⁶⁴Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God and coming in the clouds of heaven.

⁶⁵Then the high priest rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed: What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy.

⁶⁶What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.

⁶⁷Then did they spit in his face and buffeted him. And others struck his face with the palms of their hands,

⁶⁸Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ. Who is he that struck thee?

⁶⁹But Peter sat without in the court. And there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.

⁷⁰But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.

⁷¹And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him; and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.

⁷²And again he denied with an oath: I know not the man.

⁷³And after a little while, they came that stood by and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them. For even thy speech doth discover thee.

⁷⁴Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man. And immediately the cock crew.

⁷⁵And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice. And going forth, he wept bitterly.
